Seeds lifespan
« Thread Started on May 18, 2008, 12:58pm » How long can this seeds be kept?

-N. sanguinea
-D. burmannii
-N. mirabilis

Cause my sphagnum moss supply has finished and I must wait till next week. Tried to search for cocopeat those people working at Best Nursery said just sow on normal soil. And my mom believe them.

All my seeds will die!

You can still germinate them as the Nep's age but the germination rate, both % geminated and time taken to germinate, will deteriorate.
